No really, it looks like a huge hula hoop hanging on the Ju-52 in a few of those photos. They even call it a ring in one of the things though the rest is in German so unsure of the rest...

Sounds interesting. More information if anyone can find it on the B-24 experiment please.

I may be wrong. I just checked my library (two books and an old National eographic ) and found nothing on B-24s with the ring. I may have ben confusing it with the Coastal Command Libs that were used.

I guess I'll accept my punishment and be banned to a forum of the Mods choosing.

Nothing to say yet either way. It could still have been tested on B-24s. Who knows?
